1222106 - Move and delete the Add-ons documentation

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Developer Documentation Graveyard :: Add-ons, defect)

Description

[Andy McKay]

Currently there are docs at:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/addons.mozilla.org_(AMO)_API_Developers'_Guide

I would suggest we:
* delete "The Bandwagon API" none of that actually works at all
* move "The Generic API" over to be in the Add-ons tree and call it the "Add-ons manager API" as that is its primary role.

For example this could slot in below "Publishing Add-ons" maybe?

Might also be able to make room for more API docs as this documentation is pretty ready to go: https://olympia.readthedocs.org/en/latest/topics/api/index.html

I've:

* moved "The Generic API" and renamed it as you suggested: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/AMO/Add-ons_manager_API.

* made the original parent page https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/addons.mozilla.org_(AMO)_API_Developers'_Guide redirect to the Add-ons Manager API page.

* deleted the Bandwagon page

* linked to the Add-ons Manager API page from the Add-ons sidebar, under "Publishing Add-ons" and also made a section in the homepage called "AMO" where we can highlight AMO resources a bit more.

Still, the Add-ons homepage makes me want to cry. Maybe if I have a go at reworking it, you and/or Kris can review my changes?
